JanC | one reason being that during the "lunch pause" it will probably take you 30 minutes in line to get your fries... :P | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
elky | We tend to have LCA in places you can walk 5 minutes to find 20 food outlets. | 00:01 |
elky | Or places with large cafeterias, like Uni food halls. | 00:02 |
JanC | well, the uni cafeteria isn't open during FOSDEM (they are closed in the weekend) | 00:04 |
elky | Well that's silly. We tell them there's going to be 700 hungry geeks and they quite happily open up. | 00:05 |
JanC | and FOSDEM brings thousands of visitors, not 700 (I've seen the cafeteria, no way 3000 geeks fit in there) | 00:09 |
JanC | so there are 2 cafeteria's operated by the university's computer club (they get at least part of the profit), plus several stands with fries, hamburgers, etc. | 00:10 |
JanC | plus some peopel get food further away | 00:10 |
elky | Then that's an oversight in organisation, really. | 00:11 |
elky | Disallowing people a food break so they don't eat all over the day, for the reason that they eat all over the day and not enough is organised, is not a reason to mock conferences that do provide food breaks. | 00:12 |
JanC | FOSDEM is 100% volunteer-run, and they have to work within the restrictions of the university | 00:12 |
elky | JanC, LCA is 100% volunteer run. | 00:12 |
elky | And we work within the restrictions of a new venue every single year, and still provide food breaks. | 00:13 |
JanC | I'm not really mocking LCA or SCaLE for having a food break, but rather mocking FOSDEM for being too busy to have one | 00:14 |
JanC | well, mocking both ways maybe ;) | 00:14 |
JanC | I see no way FOSDEM could have a real lunch break without moving location, which is almost impossible because of the size/cost | 00:15 |
JanC | and it seems most people don't complain... | 00:16 |
JanC | peopel just try to take a lunch break when there are no talks they want to see | 00:16 |
